It should be renamed....GPS for the airway! We have 2 and MIKEY LIKES IT!!

Thanks for sharing the comparison of the two video products. We are considering ordering new equipment, and it's important to know about the fogging of the Storz vs the glidescope.

why do you remove the scope before checking ETCO2 and bagging? I would leave it in until placement is comfirmed... D

I used the Glidescope ranger on a very anterior cadaver in class and found it remarkably simple to use. If you can intubate with a traditional laryngoscope and blade, you will have no trouble with this.
It costs about $10,000 per unit so the cost certainly limits which EMS systems can use it, but it definitely is the best airway device on the market.

Just curious, when do you pull the stylette? as soon as it is through the glottic opening? seems it would be difficult with that curvature to pass the tube with the stylette still in

[b][/b] my group just purchased this device and my 1st try was on a 300lb COPD patient with NO neck. Easy as going downhill while skiing. Well worth the money!! and the hospitalist thought I was truly a god.

Fantastic device. I wonder which facilities are actually using them.

Only needs one person. Costs about $9000!! But worth it!

Great video, seems you need two people to perform, one to hold glidescope, the other to pass tube, right?
How much do these cost?
